Story from Reuters

Napoli fans are planning to raise cash to make a bid to buy Diego Maradona’s earring, which was confiscated by Italian authorities in September as part payment for his tax arrears.

The piece of jewelry, taken while Maradona was in Italy at a weightloss clinic, will be put up for auction next week with a starting price of around 4,000 euros ($5,780) expected.

“Let’s have a collection,” Napoli fans, who adore the Argentina coach after he inspired the club as a player to Serie A titles in 1987 and 1990, have written on a supporter website (www.tifosidelnapoli.it).

Napoli Fans to Bid for Maradona’s Earring

Author: FCShambles | Filed under: Contests, News, Photos

USsoccer.com is running a “best of awards” in four different cattegories.

• Best Soccer Bar (I have the feeling that all the bars they have listed are the ones that were dumb enough to pay for the “Official US Soccer Bar” program though)

• Best Soccer Specialty Store

• Best Fan Photo

• Best Soccer Blog (I can think of one you should probably put for that)

The vote requires registration at US Soccer (it’s free and easy though)
